20 Fall TV Premieres We Can’t Wait To See

The fall TV premiere season is among us once again! For those of us who love a good show, this is a very exciting time of year after a summer of reruns, re-watching old series on Netflix and Bachelor in Paradise being the only thing to look forward to on a weekly basis.

Like every year, there were a lot of cancellations from the networks. Hopefully, all your favorites made the cut. This list has some of the best television shows returning this fall that we are most excited to see again. Some are underrated, others are some old favorites, and a couple are television revivals that are coming back to the small screen for a second-wind of popularity. Keep reading to see what day your favorite show is coming back and maybe get acquainted with a new obsession.

1. Once Upon a Time

ABC

This long running fantasy series is heading for a huge shake up. Series stars Jennifer Morrison, Ginnifer Goodwin, Josh Dallas, and Emilie de Ravin all left at the end of last season. Season seven will time jump siginifcantly and focus on Henry's daughter and her adventures with Disney-themed chracters. It sounds like it'll either be immensly interesting or a complete and total miss but our fingers are crossed that ABC made the right decision to continue the show. It should be noted that Lana Parilla stayed on as the Evil Queen so... yay! The fall premiere will be October 6th.

2. Scandal

ABC

It's hard to believe that this polictical drama is entering its seventh and final season on ABC on Octber 5th. Olivia has been through a lot these last seven years: An affair with the President, kidnappings, murders, lying, cover ups, and bascially kicking ass. Hopefully the last season brings back some of the flair the first few seasons had, but still, this show is one to look forward to.

3. Fuller House

Netflix

I have been pleasantly surprised with this revival of the 90's series Full House. Fuller House brought back DJ Tanner raising her three sons after the untimely death of her husband. Her sister, Stephanie, and best friend, Kimmy move in to help her out. While the plot sounds oddly familiar, the show produces genuine laughs and only a few OTT cheesy moments.

Season three premieres on Netflix on September 22nd.

4. Mr. Robot

USA

Mr. Robot is a USA show that got people talking. With Rami Malek's brilliant acting and a subject matter that's almost a little too timely, this show has become a must-watch for politically-minded millennials everywhere. It's kind of like the TV version of Fight Club but even better. The show comes back to USA on October 11. Don't forget that "our democracy is hacked."/p>

5. Stranger Things

Netflix

Stranger Things was such a great show that *literally* everyone was talking about it last fall. It also inspired about a million Halloween costumes. There was a great cast (HI — Winona Ryder) and an interesting, twisty plot that kept us guessing. Admit it, you had at least one Stranger Things-inspired nightmare while bingeing season one. Catch up with your favroite middle schoolers when the whole second season debuts on October 27th on Netflix.

6. American Horror Story

FX

This anthology horror series is so creepy I'm not sure how they get away with showing it on network TV. With connected plots and a cast of returning actors, every season is a unique storyline that can truly scare the eff out of you. As a viewer, it's fun to guess how they're all connected. Already having explored a haunted house, mental asylum, a freak show, and more, the new season is called Cult. It's a satirical (and terrifying) look at America after our recent presidential election. It premieres September 5th on FX. Watch alone if you dare.

7. The Walking Dead

AMC

With so many fan favorite characters killed last season, it's a cruel reminder that The Walking Dead is still a zombie bloodbath. It isn't a show for our favorite characters to live happily ever after. Season eight premieres October 22nd on AMC and is already being teased as a major killing season with some cast shakeups. With any hope, the finally get rid of that crazy Negan and leave Daryl alone.

8. The Good Place

NBC

Kristen Bell has always been a ball of fun and The Good Place is a fun show with a creative story line. Bell stars as Eleanor Shellstrop, a recently deceased woman who is mistakenly sent to the good place (a heaven like existence). Or is it? This show is hilarious and was seriously underrated during its freshman season. Also starring Ted Danson, the second season premieres September 20th and airs on NBC. Watch the first season on Netflix before then.

9. Shameless

Showtime

The naughty Gallagher family is back for season eight on November 5th. This Showtime series is pretty risque and well acted with intriguing, funny, and emotional storylines. Star, Emmy Rossum made headlines this summer demanding equal pay to match William H. Macy as patriarch Frank, and back pay for past seasons. This proves she is just as strong as her character Fiona. She got what she asked for and now you should watch and see why she deserved everything she wanted. The seven previous seasons are on Netflix so if you haven't seen it, you're missing out and need to watch it ASAP.

10. Broad City

Comedy Central

Starring Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer as two stoner/slacker/hilarious best friends, this show premieres on Comedy Central for season four on September 13th. Broad City is funny because it's relatable and you know that you've definitely found yourself in some of the shenanigans these two BFFs find themselves in. Even if you haven't, you will still laugh your ass off. This show has been on hiatus for awhile so the premiere is long awaited.

11. The Mindy Project

Hulu

Who doesn't relate to Mindy just a little bit? She's fun, a bit shallow with some mixed up priorities, but has a good heart. The sixth and final season of this comedy returns September 13th on Hulu. And hopefully, we get some closure before it all ends. Sure, Mindy may have gotten married at the end of season five but will Danny come back? Will he be less of a jerk? Only time will tell.

12. Will & Grace

NBC

Will & Grace is just another early 2000s show getting the late 2010s reboot but we're all still so freaking excited. Returning to NBC on September 28th, we'll catch up with Will, Grace, Jack, and Karen. Not much has been revealed about the plot, but who cares? As long as Karen has her witty one liners, we're good.

13. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

The CW

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend ended with a bang last spring. Insecure and selfish, Rebecca Bunch was finally going to marry the man she chased out to California. Obvisouly, things didn't go as planned and Rebecca is one step away from another breakdown after vowing to destory Josh. This campy musical is entertaining, smart, and loved by critcs. Find out why on October 13th on The CW. Watch the first two seasons on Netflix now.

14. Riverdale

The CW

This dark teen series returns to The CW on October 11th and is loosley based on the Archie comic book series. The first season took viewers by storm as it followed the murder of a popular high school football star and featured Archie, Jughead, Betty, and Veronica in less-wholesome versions of their comic book selves. It was fun to watch, a good mystery, and hooked viewers in almost immediately. The fall premiere on October 11 picks up after a crazy season one cliffhanger and we can't wait to see what happens. The first season is on Netflix now.

15. How to Get Away With Murder

ABC

This Shonda Rhimes ABC show really messes with your emotions. After killing off a fan favorite, How to Get Away With Murder has some explaining to do. The season premiere is set for September 28th and will pick up with the Keating five *ahem* four, dealing with the emotions of the recent death, finding out exactly what happened, as well as an unexpected and somewhat tragically miraculous pregnancy. And I am sure there will be a few more murders for these law students to cover up.

16. Jane the Virgin

The CW

Talk about a heartbreaking end to the previous season. Jane the Virgin ripped out our hearts killing off one of the most beloved characters on the show. Season four will time jump a few years to help us all recover from the heartbreak. It will also open up new storylines since Jane's son Mateo will now be four years old. Tune in on October 13th on The CW to see how Jane adjusts to the loss and continues to raise her baby.

17. Dancing With the Stars

ABC

I don't care what anyone says, ABC has pretty legit reality shows. The long running Dancing With the Stars never fails to be entertaining, mindless fun. Plus it is always exciting to see what celebrities they round up. The official cast won't be announced until September 6th but Frankie Muniz from Malcolm in the Middle is confirmed, as is Property Brother, Drew Scott. See if Len will be impressed this year on September 18th on ABC.

18. Supernatural

The CW

There is a reason why Supernatural has been on for 13 seasons. It's really good. Plus, Jared Padalacki and Jensen Ackles as the demon hunting Winchester brothers aren't too bad on the eyes either. Every season has been entertaining and fun. No doubt season 13 will be just as great. It premieres October 12th on The CW.

This Is Us was the most watched network show last year. If you've seen it, you know why. Mandy Moore and Milo Ventimiglia star as the parents of triplets who seem to have the perfect love we all dream of. The show takes an interesting twist when it is revealed that Milo's character, Jack, has been dead for years, and the three other adult stars are the triplets as adults. The show jumps between the present and the past to reveal the story of the Pearsons'. This season we learn how Jack dies *tear* and viewers cannot wait. The show's unique format and incredible story telling made this the number one new show last year and we've got an inkling it'll do just as well during season 2. This Is Us returns to NBC on September 26th.

Don't we all kind of love when we can find characters who are worse than we are? I know I do! You're the Worst is about two self-absorbed people, Jimmy and Gretchen, embarking on a romantic relationship with one another and navigating life's stressors along the way. But despite the characters being unlikable, they are very loveable. The show is funny, sweet, and should be watched by all. This series is very critically acclaimed and season four premieres September 6th on FXX.
